Hello,

You may be suffering from gastritis or small bowel infection. It may be due to food intolerance or irritable bowel syndrome or malabsorption of magnesium induced diarrhea. Avoid spicy food and alcohol. Avoid smoking and caffeine drinks, and take a high fiber diet and plenty of water. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
